As in the title. I know that the word jailbreak comes from rooting Apple phones or something similar. But I am not sure what can be gained from jailbreaking a language model.

It will be able to say “I can’t do that Dave” instead of hallucinating?
Or will only start spewing less sanitary responses?

    It gives you near total control over the device. Let’s you install programs that the overlords don’t want, the ability to remove all bloatware etc… Let’s you change all UI elements on the OS.

    There isn’t a reason persay on why you should do it, it’s all reasons on wanting it done.

    I have no idea what you are talking about with that Dave stuff. Doesn’t seem relevant to your question.

      I think you’re speaking about jailbreaking a phone, while my question was about jailbreaks in language models (AI, like ChatGPT)
